andrewe.ca | I wanted to confirm that social.coop is in good financial health and that our fiscal host remains Platform 6. Only the “Foundation” (a US-based charitable org. and fiscal host to charitable projects) is dissolving. | 14:57:49 |

edsu | It's double that an hour later. | 21:19:38 |
edsu | I finally got around to starting a wiki page about our Threads federation: https://wiki.social.coop/wiki/Federation_with_Threads help make it better? | 22:45:16 |

dnlbrnds | Not that it would bother anybody but for some reason the favicon in Safari is 'our' logo, while the favourites button is the Mastodon one. Or is that something on my end? | 12:21:29 |
26 Mar 2024 |
edsu | I see how the favicon in the tab, but where do you see the favourites button? | 18:40:45 |

Jorge | Hi everyone! First time here. | 21:29:45 |
Jorge | Short story: I filled in the form to join this server YEARS ago, and apparently got admitted without knowing it, so I just recently found out 😅 | 21:33:15 |
Jorge | I'd like to become a bit more active here, so I'm catching up with the wiki and the other online spaces. | 21:33:28 |
Jorge | And I have a question: what would be the best way to "change" my social.coop username? | 21:34:09 |
Jorge | The username I chose is not consistent with the rest of my online identity, and would like to change it before using it more actively. | 21:34:39 |
Jorge | AFAIK, there's no way of editing a username in Mastodon, so I should create a new account and delete/redirect the old one. Does this mean I have to fill in the application form again? | 21:36:28 |
Jorge | * | 21:38:26 |

flancian 🍄 | Hi Jorge! Welcome! If you can prove you have control over the old Mastodon account, or the address it's registered to, I think you could create a second account without going through the process again. | 11:32:57 |
Jorge | That sounds perfect. Who should I talk to for this? | 15:15:43 |
Jorge | * Thank you for the reply, flancian 🍄! That sounds perfect. Who should I talk to for this?

dnlbrnds | In reply to @inkdroid:matrix.org I see how the favicon in the tab, but where do you see the favourites button? On blank pages. I think you have to define those proprietary icons in page head. | 07:56:08 |
dnlbrnds | Out of curiosity, do we have current user stats for the instance somewhere, and do they kinda align with opencollective contributions? | 07:57:47 |
edsu | dnlbrnds: mastodon's admin UI does include a report for "Active Users". But currently it really just shows logins, and not how many people actively use the instance (posting, reading, etc). https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/25700 | 10:00:27 |

andrewe.ca | The issue as raised by dnlbrnds Social.coop has the archaic favicon set (http://social.coop/favicon.ico) but not a modern implementation of favicon — and there is some disagreement on which implementation is best, but I tend to follow this one: https://medium.com/web-dev-survey-from-kyoto/favicon-nightmare-how-to-maintain-sanity-7628bfc39918 | 18:15:37 |
andrewe.ca | …but I am not sure what options the current version of Mastodon makes available to instances (or what has been proposed). There are also the social implications to this. If you save a link with a large icon disabled on your mobile home screen or web browser, should that be the instance’s image (social.coop evergreen trees) or Mastodon’s branding. | 18:30:29 |
